Letter to President Obama #48

The White House

1600 Pennsylvania Ave. NW

Washington, D.C. 20500

Attn: President Barack Obama

September 23, 2013

Mr. President:

When you speak tomorrow before the assembled masses at the United Nations General Assembly, affectionately dubbed by Rush Limbaugh as a dead-ringer for the bar scene from Star Wars, how about shaking things up a little bit? Call out China for its one-child policy that has claimed the lives of over 300,000,000 unborn children. Call out India for its practice of sex-selective abortion. Pledge to end the killing of over 1,000,000 unborn children every year in your own country.

Mr. President, the General Assembly is mostly a rogue’s gallery of thugs, dictators, and supercilious narcissists, kind of like you. Most of them hate America and would like nothing better than for us to disappear from the face of the earth; once again, kind of like you. I propose a counter-offer to the U.N. Close your speech by giving them 48 hours to get out of town. Tell them that, effective immediately, we will no longer contribute one more dime to this corrupt organization. Whatever they can’t take with them over the next 48 hours they forfeit to the American taxpayers; and let them know that diplomatic immunity will no longer be honored in America, so, if any of them have any pending legal problems in this country they may want to get a jump on that 48 hour window.

Next, create the Unborn Child Protection Agency. It can be headquartered in the soon to be vacant U.N. building. First things first, use some of the money we will be saving by not funding the U.N. and have the place thoroughly fumigated. Since government screws up just about everything it touches, let’s agree that the taxpayers provide the infrastructure and the pro-life movement will run the day to day operations. Stop funding Planned Parenthood and use some of this money to fund the UCPA. Plenty of money will be left over. Use it to feed every hungry child in America. And use the money that we’ve been wasting on the U.N. to help retire some of our debt.

Mr. President, you may think I’m kidding, but just think about it. What has the U.N. done over the last several decades that actually amounted to anything? Anytime one of the world’s despots kills a bunch of people the U.N. Security Council huddles together and, if they’re really upset, they’ll issue a strongly worded letter to said despot; and in the end, nothing changes.

Sir, when you first ran for President you ran on the slogan Change You Can Believe In. All the changes you have brought so far have been for the worse. Now you can do some good. I want to save America’s children and I don’t care where the help comes from. Mr. President, even left-wing nincompoops can do good things that change the world if they just put their mind to it and do so with the common good for all our children.

As always, all my letters to you are published on my pro-life blog at www.prolifepoppop.com. Write back and I’ll publish it, unedited.
